To all of our family and friends Happy Holidays to you and yours from all of us at the Brotherhood. We wish everyone all the best tomorrow in the biggest week(Don't Worry Week 17 Owners The Brotherhood Rolls On) of the year for most of fantasy football. Thanks to all that have made the 2011 fantasy season a successful one. It was only a few short months ago, when we wondered if we would even have a football season and now we are here at the end. Go with what got you to the title game, always go with your gut and remember you have a secret weapon that no one even knows exists in your back-pocket. We are Fantasy Football Brothers! INJURIES  Roy Helu-WAS Questionable Helu is dealing with foot issues and is expected to play. How much he actually plays this... read more

This is it! For most, Week 16 means Superbowl. For those who have made it - Congrats! For those falling short - Our condolences. We thank you all for your continued loyalty. We're honored to have you as part of the Brotherhood. Last week, we questioned Calvin Johnson's playoff stock after his recent slump. The stud wide-0ut stepped it up when it counted putting together one of the better performances of his career. He's the sure-fire No. 1 this week. Atlanta will have to keep pace with the Saints if they want to keep their playoff hopes alive. Julio Jones and Roddy White should be very active in a game that has all the makings for a shootout. Mike Wallace would traditionally torch the Rams, but with Big Ben's accuracy and power being hampered by an ankle injury - all bets are off. His rank could drop by week's end. Jabar Gaffney continues to be... read more

There is plenty to talk about at the RB spot this week with injuries dominating the news. DeMarco Murray's breakout came as quickly as his season ended. Darren McFadden is still not ready to return to the field. Adrian Peterson is expected to suit up after missing a few games. Kevin Smith returns after missing a game with a high ankle sprain. RB Adrian Peterson-MIN  Questionable Peterson is expected to return this week barring a last minute set back. AP should handle the bulk of the carries unless the game becomes a blow out and then we might see him a much more limited fashion to keep him healthy.  Toby Gerhart will be relegated to back up duties once again. RB Mark Ingram-NO OUT    With Ingram out again, it will be another RB du jour game. Second year back... read more

Laurent Robinson has scored 8 touchdowns in the last 7 weeks, while Dez Bryant has scored in 4 out of his last 5. The return of Miles Austin will target dilute, but all three are very viable options vs. the Bucs. Demaryius Thomas is coming off of a 13 target outing. He's scored 3 TDs in the last 2 Weeks and should have continued success vs. a New England secondary that struggled against Donte Stallworth and Jabar Gaffney. The Falcon aerial attack finally appears to be firing on all cylinders. Roddy White has scored in three straight. After dropping the potential game winning touchdown in Week 13, Julio Jones exploded with 2 scores in Atlanta's comeback win over the Panthers. The dynamic duo will square off against an underrated Jag defense on Thursday Night. Calvin Johnson has transformed into a WR2 over the... read more

The playoffs for most owners, are now under way. For some unlucky players they start next weekend  week 15, which means that they have to play through week 17. We do not envy those that have to play in week 17 due to the fact that some NFL teams begin to rest their players for their own NFL playoff push. The good news is that there are a ton of the elite RBs that will have great fantasy playoff matchups. We love to preach that you should always start your studs. There is nothing wrong with using a strength of schedule. In fact a strength of schedule is a great tool that every owners uses, but you should never live and die by a strength of schedule.... read more

Percy Harvin has exemplified the versatility and big-play ability that made him such a hot commodity coning out of college. Christian Ponder's maturation is evident despite the Vikes loosing record. Harvin has scored 4 receiving and 1 rushing TD in the last 5 games. In the last three weeks, he's accumulated 22 catches for 324 yards and 4 TDs. UPDATE - with Ponder out, expectations should be lowered. Michael Crabtree continues to improve. The targets and yardage totals are there, despite the Niners conservative approach. He's a weekly Top 20 prospect if he can begin to find the endzone more often. Brad Smith has stepped up for the Bills. Once thought to be nothing more than a utility man, Smith has been targeted 17 times over the last 2 weeks - pulling down 11 catches for 149 yards and a score. Victor Cruz has seen 62 targets over... read more

It's playoff time for almost all of fantasy nation. Owners are shoring up wholes and scouring the waiver wire looking to ride that special player that can help bring a title. There aren't any RBs that jump out and say I can win you a title, but there is some potential. The biggest potential comes from the Chicago Bears backfield. If Marion Barber can play like its 2007 or 2008 then owners will find a steal on the waiver wire. Malcom Floyds' return is a potential shot in the arm for owners that have depleted receiving corps. The elite WRs for the most part have been largely disappointing. Part of is the massive amount of injuries, the other part is the never ending stream of injuries to decent QBs this season. Remember to keep it simple and just because it... read more

Fantasy Playoffs It's was just ten short years ago when  an incredulous Jim Mora responded to a reporters question about making the playoffs. His immortal retort. "Playoffs? Don't talk about playoffs? Are you kidding me? Playoffs?" That interview is still as funny now, as it was ten years ago. Sadly today only an owner that has made their fantasy playoffs will find humor in that. Congrats to all of you that have made your fantasy playoffs.  It's time to bring home a trophy. For those that missed out in the playoffs, look back and see what you could have done differently. Whether it was poor drafting, team mismanagement or lineup problems all of these issues can be fixed. We can help. I will talk about this at another time but... read more

  Thursday Night Football   Our 1ST Look RB Ranks promised a great RB matchup on Thursday with Marshawn Lynch and an injured LeSean McCoy battling it out. Lynch was ranked 10th and McCoy 8th and both lived up to the hype and earned their lofty rankings especially Lynch. He racked up 148 yards rushing and two scores. He now has four games of over a hundred yards rushing in his last five games with a near miss of 88 yards rushing in the other game. He has scored 5 touchdowns in his last five games and has now scored at least one touchdown in his last 8 games. McCoy was no slouch either Thursday with 84 yards rushing and a score to go along with his 4 receptions for 49 yards and a receiving touchdown. He has been the... read more
